***Official*** West Indies in New Zealand

[TT Boy]

That sort of language not being condoned here, it's harsh to call Ramdin that if you are. He did everything right but he just went too far and the ball hit his wrist instead of the palm.

No I meant was the chance easy aka a piece of **** (a number one, it’s an East End phrase for when something is easy, hence the question mark), I didn’t mean Ramdin was a number two.

Haha, I don`t know who I want to win. I really like Bond, Franklin and Vettori, but then I like Edwards and Bravo.

Go Windies I reckon, may the Bravo be with you. And maybe that Brian guy, whoever he is.

 

[superkingdave]

don't worry TT Boy i got what you were saying.

Shame i can't watch this, hope WI can bring it home tonight.

World Cricket`s Bits and Pieces for mine.

Go the Windies.

Well I think you will be a happy guy tomorrow, the pitch seems very flat and the Windies openers had little trouble seeing off the new ball tonight.

Pathetic effort from us today, threw the match away.

Sounds like this match is worth getting up at 3 AM for...

May the Bravo not have to bat.

I agree, Liam. Run out without facing a ball would do me just fine.

You're that scared of the Bravo?

EDIT: Even if he's run out without facing a ball, him not "having" to bat means that the West Indies will win anyway.

Is Powell likely to play in the next Test? I've no clue whether he's injured or whatever... just don't want to pick yet another player in the fantasy competitions that end up not playing.

 

[chekmeout]

I just want the Windies to win really bad.....

When was the last time they won a test match abroad (Excluding Bangla-Zim)... I'd reckon it's been quite a while eh??

 

[Natman20]

Nz have been very sketchy this match and I blame it on the lack of Test cricket we play which I now blame the ICC on. Last test match whats it been like 6 months ago? I think West Indies should win this one easy today although i'm going to go watch it in Auckland. It's very overcast and we had an early shower early in the morning don't know if its the same up there but it should be pretty similar.

The weather doesn't look good... Grey skies, pretty dark.

Versus England at Edgbaston in 2000 I think.

 

[ohtani's jacket]

And here comes the rain... Showers.

EDIT: It's raining heavily now. No chance of play this morning.

 

[Ming]

It's not raining hard at all. It's going to definitely clear up soon.

 

[James]

Good for us, hopefully the pitch has some juice in it now

I've got a feeling you might need juice, ice, rum and plenty of powdered sugar in it to give you a chance - and it'll still be de West Indies drinkin' de Daiquiris.

Should be very interesting though.

Am I the only person who doesn't think this is an easy win for NZ? Am I missing something you guys know? I mean, with all due respect to the Windies, they were at 47/0 in their last innings and soon after, they were 49/3 and then 60/4. NZ have outscored the Windies' first innings in both of their innings, so I don't see why NZ are suddenly in a "dire situation" or sorts that will require a huge amount of luck for them to win it. Maybe I don't know something you guys know about the conditions or something...
